Mineralization is a vein deposit with a tabular ore body. Ore control was faulting, shearing and igneous dikes. Ore concentration was oxidation at near surface. Alteration was minor to none.
Area structures include veins (and genetically-related [?]) dikes trend N10W to N40W and crosscut Precambrian fabric. Foliation inn the Precambrian schist and gneiss trends N35E to N65E.
